Combine a boutique hotel London stay with sales shopping

If
you are considering staying in a boutique hotel London has a good range in
close proximity to the major shopping centres, including hotels near Oxford
Street itself.

You
will also find plenty of hotels near Hyde
Park, a perfect base from which to hit the shops. From your boutique hotel
you can access all the major shopping areas and staff there will be able to
point you in the direction of anything specific that you may require.

For
anyone staying at a boutique hotel London is thus the ideal location in which
to combine long days in the shops with some relaxing down time, perfect after a
hectic Christmas.

Oxford
Street and Regent Street offer a myriad of shops with everything from clothing
stores to jewellery havens. You will find technical giants such as Apple and
the world famous toy store Hamleys. This is the perfect place in which to spend
a younger visitor's pocket money. Don't miss the world famous Selfridges
department store, which offers just about everything imaginable under one roof.

Further
to the south west, Knightsbridge offers a delightful high end shopping
experience with boutiques and independent retailers, guaranteeing some unique
purchases. This area is of course well known for Harvey Nicholls and Harrods.
Harrods has a globally renowned January sale, which attracts large crowds as
well as large discounts. Combining a browse with a glass of champagne in one of
the bars or a bite to eat certainly helps to get in the spirit.

London
is an exciting, sprawling shopper's delight and you can find just about
anything to suit your tastes and budget. The Westfield shopping centre is a
mall near the Olympic site, with the major high street brands represented. If
you prefer something a little more original or quirky, you may want to visit
Camden or Portobello for the markets.

Mayfair
is the favoured area to visit for beautiful suits and business wear. The
tailors on Saville Row will be able to help with an individual handmade design,
perfect for the business executive or for those who are perhaps getting married
or attending a special event in the New Year.
